NFL Black Monday, 2026
I really like Fernando Mendoza and Dante Moore. It sucks they will likely go to franchises ill-equipped to hire a proper coach. I think Moore might have a better chance if he doesn’t go one overall of landing a better team. If I’m building the ultimate team I’d hire Kliff as QB coach or an OC and likely Flores as DC and either McVay or Vrabel as my HC. In a perfect world. The Raiders need a grown ass man who can hire a proper staff. Mendoza is one of those rare perfect QBs. Total playbook nerd. Exactly the right height and weight. Can scramble. Loves the game. Supports his teammates. All the intangibles. About to get demoralized and wasted on the wrong team if they don’t hire a proper head coach. Mendoza thrives in a process oriented strict atmosphere. He can’t go to a complete mess with a shit HC. I know people laugh at McCarthy and he’s getting a lot of looks and his clock management and in game decisions are shit but he would be good for the Giants. I just don’t know if there is a process oriented type coach that can be a Cig in the NFL for Mendoza to thrive under and that sucks to watch essentially a perfect QB prototype get wasted under shit mgmt.

I was watching some sports show and they had on McVay and he said even in the NFL you still need to explain to players why. Why are we asking you to do this 100 times? He said you explain the why and 90% of the players get it and they buy in. The ones that don’t will be on another team. Our pitch last year was we are doing things to emulate the NfL bc Sark visits NFL teams in the spring and he admires how they do things, that got us 9-3 and we are a Niblett away from 7-5. Sark is the one in the Spring who touted the NFL light to no contact practices as the way to go and told many media outlets how he admires how the run shit. But why? We shouldn’t be crowning athletes that ain’t earned shit position wise before they have. Now we have systemic rot in year 6. People love to blame the talent, the rankings and have done so for years. What would Cig have done here in year two? It doesn’t matter bc we wouldn’t have hired him bc we are Texas and we know better (McWilliams, Makeussick, Strong) we couldn’t have hired him. We need a Mr Miyagi right now drilling repetition into the players not some slick ass bullshit that Deion was doing at Colorado.- Texas Roster 2026

The blue print has been around a long time. But you have to have a competent coaching staff in place to execute it. Regular practices for a start would help. Being 💯 involved and focused solely on the job would help. Are the people on our staff and at the GM “role” the very best we can get? Are banks and flood really the best at their jobs? We jettisoned PK bc he wasn’t Sark’s first choice for a readymade HC in Muschamp. And he will be a new addition that we hope will be seamless as far as coaching is concerned. Sark wants to go sit with Arch and call plays and hope that Banks and Muschamp will coach the team while the other units are on the field. We crowned the guy already and he has his work cut out for him in a year which should be easy. We have Arch. We have location and the facilities and the history and the money. So why does it seem so fucking hard in year six and don’t say agents and money and Wild West bc every school is dealing with the same crap, Cig got his dudes already though. So Cig lite?- Texas Roster 2026
💯 Look at what Mendoza himself was rated coming out of high school. You can absolutely have a 5 star culture with 3 stars if you have a sound process and practices and staff in place that focus on the grind and repetition. Mendoza has been a recruiting video for Indiana the past month plus. We are process oriented he says. We run the plays over and over and over in practice he says. We can drag teams into the deep end he says. we are all focused together on one common goal. We are all in synch and can fight in the trenches and we work as a unit. They have established a culture with complete portal players in two years. This is year 6 of sark and it’s like (outside of Muschamp) a bunch of frat boys trying to moneyball portal players bc we didn’t recruit well. These are all sark’s handpicked dudes. His guys and his staff. What matters is what happens after we finish raiding the portal. That’s all that matters. Because working hard and coaching them up and developing them and doing their job is what we should all be demanding from Sark and his staff. We went 5-7 and 8-4 when he first arrived and then had two amazing seasons and this year was mostly unwatchable but we beat our rivals and wound up 9-3. A testament imo to the players fighting hard and making plays. We will need a Herculean coaching effort from Sark and his staff due to the fact we have basically turned over a lot more of our roster (besides draft) than expected. Arch cannot carry the whole team against elite competition.- Texas Roster 2026
According to CJ Vogel so far our portal class is ranked 20th. Not bad. We have 9 days right? We will fill the holes we have with the players from the portal. But if you told me we would have two top tier ranked QBs in a row and with an ascendant Arch we are now playing catchup with schools who need the portal to survive and getting outclassed by teams like Indiana and Wisconsin and Vandy I’d have said impossible. To me it’s further proof Sark phoned in 2025 and we have some real issues for 2027. We have nine days. We can always up our haul and land our portal class in the top 15. But yeah anyone who thinks this is normal for a Top 5 team is blowing way too much smoke up their own ass. I don’t kink shame but come on.- Texas Roster 2026
So a couple of years ago I was told the only and best way to build a team is per recruiting. So as it stands now we are trying to fill slots with athletes we don’t need to develop (they are experienced) from other schools because our recruits did not pan out and are leaving en masse. Shit even CJ Vogel and others are a wee concerned. 9 days left to fill those openings. And hope the athletes we select in the portal will pan out. It’s not SDS. The signs were showing themselves all year something wasn’t right. To be fair I mainly only bitched about his play-calling UNTIL the Florida loss and really only poured on the dislike the day of the Miss State game/Russini report. So essentially we are Texas. A top 5 destination and we have lost so many recruits that we are now having to fill a wide swath of the team with guys we did not recruit. So we are building a Frankenstein team. Which can work if we have the right eye for talent across the board which based on certain position groups performance last year is not a given.- Texas Roster 2026

What is the bit? He has everyone signed and ready to go to fill all the vacant slots and then some but he’s holding off on making announcements? 😂 There are a lot of people in the portal and the TARGET should have been O LINE which will make any playmaker we TARGET shine. It seems like it was like Coleman as a weapon and what? Special Teams looks good I guess for some praise. The absolute first item on the list should be targeting OLINE period. And then grab your weapons or use the fact that you have a fucking Oline to grab some portal transfers. We have either thru attrition or pushing them out lost a lot of players. I don’t know what the fucking plan is but Indiana made a haul and seemed to go after and target precisely who they wanted. What is the process here? Is there one? Cuz we will fill the holes left bc of the massive amount of people in the portal but how many of those were targeted selections and how many of those will be “oh shit we gotta get someone cuz so and so is gone?” Selections. Great trolling job by Sark if this is all some planned deal. But it looks like a sloppy fucking mess. Or people have warned everyone not to come here? Or they saw our shit Oline the past few years and realized sark is keeping Flood (something that is dumb as fuck no matter whether you like Sark or question him or think he’s fool’s gold) keeping flood is a dumbfuck move. It’s dumb. Moronic. Flood should not be on the 40 acres. I fail to see how keeping attracts anything other than flies.- Texas Roster 2026

He wants the TITLE OF HC (a position he is pretty much had overall for about 13 years) and he wants the salary and recognition and accolades of being called a HC and a play caller BUT he is trying something new this year, this is the closest we are likely to get to him hiring an OC. He doesn’t want to deal with the defense (in my opinion that’s just a glorified Co-HC or OC but whatever) he kept his buddies on staff (some of whom couldn’t be a water boy on Indiana’s staff) and he hired his first choice Muschamp to be a second HC on the field so he doesn’t have to listen to the Headset on defense and can focus solely on offense. Portal ain’t closed yet and we obviously need to FoCUS on our fucking Oline and having a RB that can routinely get 100 yds per game (something we had only one RB who is gone do ONE time at the end of the regular season against Aggy) I’m not pissed but grabbing shiny weapons in the portal won’t mean dick if we don’t shore up the shit Oline which has been a problem for 3 years. Is there a “Flood what would you say you do here?” Thread bc it needs to happen. Not sure what the fuck we are going. But patience man. Patience, portal still open but if we don’t get some fucking dudes on Oline damn.- Texas Roster 2026

Who’s on the plank next (by that I mean new hire?)- Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?

It would make the MOST sense to go all in this year and bag an MNC. Then go get your team and draft arch. Most definitely. But if the offer is there now (not saying it is there) and that’s what you ultimately want do you turn it down now? Say you get the job. Chances are that job doesn’t have a QB. Wouldn’t you just sign a veteran that can be there for the year as you plug a ton of other holes in the draft? Then wait until Arch becomes available? I mean I get what you mean but I can also see taking the job building thru the draft and FA and going all in the following year to land Arch who would surely want to be with his coach? I guess?- Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
